About

Canceled via email from Peggy on 3/19. ~tt



Before computers and printers, posters and books were printed on old-school printing presses. Today, these 'letterpress' machines are used primarily for making awesome art pieces! Now you have the chance to learn how to use BARN's vintage equipment with a modern twist.

Over four afternoons you will get to play around and arrange modern blocks in your own unique way - you may choose to make abstract forms, or arrange your shapes to make letters and numbers. Getting comfortable with this unique art medium will open up new possibilities for making one-of-a-kind art.

If you love learning new forms of art, this class is for you!
